His Unique Book-Based Artwork

Trevino’s photos of his novels began to transform from merely featuring the books to creating entire works of art with them!

How He Creates His Masterpieces

To accomplish such large and remarkable scenes, Trevino leans on his close friend Elizabeth for help. The duo brainstorms ideas, works to execute them, and tries “to bring it as close as possible to [their] vision.” Even after the stunning photos are captured, Trevino and Elizabeth make sure they are edited to perfection. And while their book-based artwork is unique, the scenes they create aren’t random!

Trevino’s Inspirations: Books And Films

Trevino pulls inspiration from some of his favorite books and movie series, from Harry Potter to Pirates of the Carribean to various Marvel comics! The fact that his art is inspired by the novels his pieces are made of makes them even more authentically awesome. Thankfully, Trevino doesn’t plan on halting progress on his beautiful bookscapes any time soon – and he hopes to keep expanding his insanely large library!
